spurdy Posted March 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 Probably should let you guys that don't know, Ethan is 13. He tore this "rolling chassis" down from an old broke POS at the end of 2009. Since then, we salvaged what could have been salveaged from the motor and put it together with my old cut tranny, new bearings and all that with the ported cylinders it came with. Added little things like timing plate, pancake bearing etc that it didn't have. Had the frame PCed and then slowly put it back together. He saved and paid for about half of the stuff you see here. I bought the front end for him for x-mas but most of the rest he has bought and built himself through working, saving, trading and selling parts. This has been his project and now he has something to be proud of. It is a 66mm bore stock stroke ported motor with a single 33 PWK with PT mids netting 170 static compression. LSR front end on Fox Floats on a stock swing arm. Look for him at the dunes! Lol! SP 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
